How fun! I'm dying to know which one is a picture of Jaid Black. And the cavemen......Mmmmmm....yummy. I got your novella "Stolen Goddess" to review. I just checked in to see if you'd bribe me. LOL. Just kidding.

Seriously, I really hope you enjoy Stolen Goddess! I have high hopes for that story. It was a unique challenge for me to write, since it was originally written as a three-part serial.

I'm going to add notes under each photograph, identifying the people. Jaid is the woman sitting next to me at the table when I'm writing. She's also standing next to me in the photograph outside in front of the tour bus.

Cool!! I wondered what Jaid looked like. Are you sure you want to promise me that Tawny? I can eat a lot of chocolate!!! LOL.I was so excited to read your novella, and expected to like it. I didn't expect to want to read it twice and make my best friend read it. She loved it, BTW. It's a serial? Where's the other two? I just gotta say.."We're not worthy! We're not worthy!"You rock Tawny.

The story you read was the complete serial, combined. The intended breaks were where you now see chapter breaks, if that makes any sense. The magazine's layout required each installment to be pretty short. It was a real challenge getting plot, characterization and sex in a 5,000 word installment, let me tell you. But it was a great exercise. I learned a lot from writing a story that way--as three pieces that had to somewhat stand on their own.

BTW, I did lengthen the chapters a bit before releasing it as a novella.

And Shelli, you know I love you, girl :) I hope we'll get to meet in person someday!
